How ironic... I've had "Bell's on Christmas Day" laid by for several days, ready to recite at the family gathering tomorrow. You beat me to it my friend....but I shall prevail.

This will follow as the Blessing:

"When the song of the angels is stilled,when the star in the sky is gone,when the kings and princes are home,when the shepherds are back with the flocks,then the work of Christmas begins:to find the lost,to heal those broken in spirit,to feed the hungry,to release the oppressed,to rebuild the nations,to bring peace among all peoples,to make a little music with the heart…

And to radiate the Light of Christ,every day, in every way, in all that we do and in all that we say.Then the work of Christmas begins."

We'll be thinking of you..... May the Lord Bless you and keep you, D & M, and may His Light shine upon you all your days".

I remember reading that he wrote the poem shortly after receiving word that his son had died of wounds received at Gettysburg. That would tend to sour one's outlook on "peace on earth, goodwill to men."
